The Skula attendance module replaces the paper register — the class teacher marks attendance from any device by default, or turn on the optional QR + GPS kiosk so students and staff scan their ID card, geofenced to school grounds so it cannot be faked. Parents get a WhatsApp or SMS alert the moment a student is absent, either way.
What it does
Teachers mark attendance in seconds from any device — no more paper registers to file and search.
Turn on the kiosk mode and students/staff scan their ID card's QR code to mark present — no roll call needed.
When scanning is on, a scan only counts within a radius of the school you set — no marking present from home.
Scan the same card again at pickup time — the system knows it's a departure, logs it, and texts the parent instantly.
Parents get a WhatsApp or SMS alert the moment their child is marked absent — same day, not next week.
See attendance rate by student, class or term — spot patterns before they become a problem.
Mark attendance from a phone, tablet or computer — built for classrooms with limited hardware.
What used to take minutes with a paper register takes seconds — more class time, less admin.
Attendance data connects to report cards and parent communication automatically — entered once.
Pricing
QR + GPS attendance is part of one of 15 modules included in every Skula plan, from GH₵199/month.

Two ways: from the Attendance module on any device, or by scanning a student/staff ID card's QR code at a kiosk — both take seconds per class, and there's no paper register to keep or lose.
QR scans are GPS-geofenced — the scan only registers as present if it happens within a radius you configure around your school. Someone scanning from home or on the road simply can't mark themselves present.
Yes — an absentee alert goes out by WhatsApp or SMS the same day a student is marked absent.
Yes — with QR scanning on, the same card scanned a second time is automatically recognised as a departure, not another arrival. It logs the time, notifies the parent by SMS/WhatsApp instantly, and can optionally note who picked the student up. No separate mode or extra step for staff.
No. Attendance — including QR and GPS scanning — is included in every Skula plan at GH₵199/month, along with 14 other modules. There's nothing extra to buy.
Yes — attendance reports break down rate by student, class or term, so you can spot patterns like chronic lateness or absenteeism early.
